The boss lady furrowed his brows and spoke with pity and troubled voice. “Lord Yu, I must tell you the truth. I’ve already sold Qing’er to Lord Xu. I just ordered my n to send her to his manor. Right now, I truly regret that decision. If only I knew this would happen, I’d have sold her to you, milord.”

Just then, Yu Wuhen flinched and his thin lips clearly pursed tightly. After so thought, he flatly said “Who did you buy that young lady, Qing’er from?”

“A few days ago, an old man from the village visited in a cattle cart. He carried Qing’er to for sale. At the ti, I noticed how pretty Qing’er was and bought her,” Replied the boss lady honestly.

“What day was this?”

“The seventeenth.”

Yu Wuhen’s hands clenched tightly around the teacup. “What else do you know about this young lady Qing’er? Tell everything.”

“Er... Qing’er said she has both parents and an older brother. She also said that she knew how to play the Guqin, chess, paint, read, sing, and dance. Also... Qing’er liked to play the Guqin in her spare ti.”

Yu Wuhen thought about it for a mont, then asked with confidence, “Was there so kind of special reason why you didn’t keep Qing’er, so you sold her off?”

On the inside, the boss lady secretly complinted him, ‘Lord Yu is truly clever.’

She thought about it for a mont, then matter of factly said, “Yes. I bought Qing’er with my money, and so naturally, I decide if she stays or leave. There is nothing wrong with that.”

The teacup smashed to pieces with a bang, then Yu Wuhen turned his heels and strode out of the room.

“Ah! Don’t go! Lord Yu, oh great bankroller Yu, won’t you give a little reward? I did tell you the whole truth!”

Yu Wuhen’s expression turned ominous, as he had no plans on having anything more to do with this greedy brothel owner.

The boss lady watched as Yu Wuhen and his n walked off. “Wow. For the richest man of Donghua, he sure is a guy without integrity. After such a long conversation, he didn’t even know to tip. What a real waste of my breath,” she said furiously.

The boss lady stord angrily out of the room.

Yu Wuhen left rry, then ordered, “To the Xu manor,” as he sat inside his palanquin.

Four muscular, tanned n lifted the palanquin and headed for the Xu manor.

Inside the palanquin, Yu Wuhen’s fists were tightly clenched. He hoped that it actually was Chuchu, but he also didn’t.

But then again, Yu Wuhen has already confird that it was Chuchu deep down inside. Suddenly, he felt both delighted and worried. “Hurry it up!” He ordered.

Fifteen minutes later, Xu Qingjue led his servants back to the Xu manor.

“Take the thief to the dungeon,” he said coldly.

“Yes, milord.”

Xu Qingjue looked at the incredibly frail thief with a vicious glow in his eyes. Just you wait, I’ll definitely have you executed! Because of you, I lost ten million taels for nothing.

With that, Xu Qingjue went to his own room.

“Milord, the young lady has arrived,” said the housekeeper at the door.

“Got it. Go tend to your duties,” said Xu Qingjue with a smile on his face.

Yes, milord.” The old housekeeper respectfully left.

Two maids opened the door and Xu Qingjue walked in. His eyes imdiately fell on Chu Qingchuan, who was laying flat on the bed with the veil over her face removed, revealing her deadly beauty. Suddenly, he felt imnse joy. “Just as expected, it was ten million taels well spent! She’s just as flawless as that fat boss lady said!”

Chu Qingchuan furrowed her brows and her eyelids fluttered open to see Xu Qingjue drooling at her from above. Although he was handso—more so than Yu Wuhen several hundred tis over, or several million tis over even! But, she felt incredibly disgusted.

She looked down to see that she was still in her white dance costu and suddenly rembered that she was knocked unconscious in the rear courtyard of rry. Then, she imdiately turned to Xu Qingjue and angrily cried, “You ordered soone to knock out... didn’t you?”

Xu Qingjue smiled pervertedly and replied, “Su what if I did and so what if I didn’t? From now, you’re my mistress. You’ll do whatever I tell you to do.”

“Forget it. I’m not your mistress or whatever.” With that said, Chu Qingchuan rushed towards the door.

Xu Qingjue imdiately stopped Chu Qingchuan and smiled confidentially. “Even if I gave you ten legs, you wouldn’t even able to escape the Xu manor. Obediently let enjoy you. How about that? Pretty?”
